Today I was struggling through the lunges. I use hardly any weight on them, but the protraction of the movements is too much for my body, which I think believes itself to be fat. That means I have to push harder through! And get more rest.

Superset #1

Dumbbell Squats

30lbs/leg, 2x20

Lunges

10lbs/leg, 1x20, 1x10

Superset #2

Ballet Squats

30lbs/leg, 2x20

Straight-Leg Dead Lift

30lbs/leg, 2X20

Superset # 3

Shoulder Press

25lbs/arm, 2x20

Seated Calf Raises (both legs)

45lbs/calf, 2x25

Superset #4

Lateral Raises

10lbs/arm 1x20; 7.5 lbs/arm 1x20

Outside seated calf press

50lbs/calf, 2x30

Hey, I would have tried to do the tens again for lateral raises, but they were all taken, and I had a gel running! What? I wouldn't have been able to do 10lbs another 20 times anyway. I swear, those squats just kill me, but by the time I'm walking out of the gym, my legs are completely functional again. I would call that progress.
